ANNOUNCEMENT: Forum software change coming - XenForo

I'm excited to try out the new platform on my phone since that is how I access most things online these days. Any update on the time frame?
 
I should have something to look at this week and I’ll make sure it’s at least reasonable before unleashing it on the testers.
 
Our software guy got the flu that's going around and this will be delayed into next week :shrug:

Watching this run through the firehouse I totally understand the delay. Flu was extra suckyy this year.
 
Update, sorry for the slow news.

We work with a one-man shop, full-time developer who is a work-at-home single dad and the flu delay pushed things back into the week of his kids' spring break, unfortunately.

He's working on getting us to the testing stage, just not as fast as any of us wanted.

Matt and I can't thank you folks enough for the financial support on the conversion, it's mades this a much easier pill to swallow.
 
I just saw this. Donation made. If you let me help test post, I promise I will do my best not to delete the entire 16 years. :wave:
 
:thumbsup: You're the perfect person to try to break the new forum ;)

:rotfl:
 
Thanks! Still waiting on him to finish the test install :shrug:
 
Owe y'all an update. We have not yet seen the test install and are disappointed at the time it's taking. We have NOT paid any money yet, per our agreement we have to work through the test install and any issues before partial payment is issued with the remainder after seeing the successful push live, so we're not out anything but some time.

We are still hoping that this comes to life soon and I'm chomping at the bit to see it.
 
I hope the switch on this forum goes smoother than the switch to XenForo at Expedition Portal. I have been unable to log in there since they switched last week. I just get the message: "Security error occurred, Please press back, refresh the page, and try again." I can't even access help because it requires you to log in. And I get the same error message when I click on "Contact Us".
 
Bummer Moabite...I logged in on EXPO with no issues, business as usual. I have not spent much time on it with the new software, but it seems to be OK, might take a little getting used to the new font, graphics, etc. As with any change, it seems a little foreign at first.

Hmmm. Here’s to hoping we can do better. Hope they have it sorted quickly.
 
I just logged in there on my phone fine. It’s these kinds of one-off issues that worries me most :eek:
 
Was finally able to log into Expedition Forum this morning, so they appear to have taken care of the issue.
 
OK! Some positive news. It's taken WAAAY too long with no good explanation, but we have evidence of industry although it's not ready for me to play around with quite yet due to a couple of issues.

Hoping we're talking hours/days at this point, but at least he sent screen grabs!
